Business Setup & Advisory Services in India for Foreign Companies

India is one of the fastest-growing markets in the world and an attractive destination for foreign companies looking to expand their global footprint. However, setting up a business in India as a foreign entity requires careful planning due to multiple regulatory, tax, and compliance requirements.

We provide business setup and advisory services in India for foreign companies, helping overseas businesses enter and operate in India in a compliant, tax-efficient, and practical manner.

India Entry Advisory for Foreign Businesses

Every foreign business has a different objective—market access, sourcing, execution of projects, or long-term expansion. We advise foreign companies on the most suitable India entry strategy, keeping in mind regulatory approvals, tax exposure, and operational flexibility.

Our advisory work involves regular interaction with authorities such as the Ministry of Corporate Affairs and the Reserve Bank of India, ensuring that your India operations remain fully compliant with Indian laws.
